2. Layer the ingredients in the crock pot from top of the ingredient list to the bottom.

3. Try to mix the broth and soup around, but it will be much easier to stir after an hour of cooking.
4. Salt and pepper to taste! You could also add a little sprinkles cheese if desired.
5. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or cook on high for 4 hours. Stir occasionally.

While some people may feel that it is too hot for soup during summertime, I could eat soup all year around!! If you have been following my blog, than you may know that I LOVE a good crock pot recipe! There is nothing like coming home to a cooked, hot meal after a long day at work. Yes, I leave my slow cooker on all day while I am at work… you can do the same at your own risk!

This recipe is fool-proof and was a nice change of meal for Jason and I. It was full of flavor and paired lovely with a glass of white wine. I am not a huge pepper fan, so I will say that the pepper flavor is not overbearing in this recipe, it is just right! This soup will be on repeat during the colder months as well (just like my Loaded Potato Soup). The crock pot is the best because it means lots of delicious left overs. I imagine that I will use the crock pot often when Jason and I have children one day. Please share any easy and yummy crock pot recipes that you have!!
